EDITED. My reviews suggested I add some spaces in between the paragraphs. SO I DID :D Thank you so much to those who Reviewed/Favorited/Followed. **I'm kind of inexperienced in writing, so please bear with me. D; I'll try to take advice from the reviews to improve.**
Eleven in the morning, the sun is shining brightly, embracing everything at its sight. A brunet, in the name of Sawada Tsunayoshi, stood up from his desk, away from his final pile of paperwork to open the windows for some fresh air. He peered forward, towards the city streets, so far not hearing much chattering. Yet. The streets are already filled with people roaming around. From far, it seems that everyone is going on with their business. Many were dressed for work and looking as sophisticated is ever, though, their walking pace increased the moment they peered down at their watch. It was fairly quiet (for a crowded street, that is) , until several vendors joined the crowd with their HUMONGOUS, wheeled food-stands. Since their transportable business are absolutely huge, it was quite a task to bring it to their desired location without letting it bang into anyone. Actually, it's rather IMPOSSIBLE to not bang into anyone.
Crash!
"Hey! Watch it, this suit is expensive!"
Crash!
"What the heck! You made me spill my coffee!"
Some well-mannered vendors would apologize. While others would just ignore and keep on with their way. Bad choice. The businessman/woman that was expecting an apology would chase after that vendor to present a punch in their face. The vendor, would of course, hit back. The exchanging blows would cause the two to lose their balance occasionally, creating a domino effect of people bumping into each other. Now there are complaints shooting through the air like forest fire, most containing a "colorful" vocabulary in different languages.
The brunet's eyes narrowed, stepped back, and shut the window, hoping to not hear the voices anymore. It was just like every other morning. He was used to this routine honestly, but it doesn't mean he can go through it without wanting to take a knife and jab it into his chest a good several times. Today was different than usual though. However, just because it's different, doesn't mean it's better.
"Impressive.. I can still hear them." he wasn't lying when he stated it. The Vongola headquarters is located in a city. However, it was built in an open area, surrounded with gates and made sure that the gates' perimeters are 3x3 blocks around the mansion. Therefore, the city noises shouldn't be able to be heard within the mansion (city noises as in the sounds of vehicles, and NORMAL-volume conversations) Not to mention, the mansion's outer walls are sound proof (as well as bullet proof, cannonball proof, you name it).
Tsuna tried to ignore the chaos outside and focused on completing his remaining paperwork. It had been 4 hours since his right-hand man, Gokudera Hayato, placed those "minions of hell" on his desk. If today he's lucky, Hayato's next knock on the door would be for the signal that lunch is ready. If not, (like any other normal days) the knock would be for another pile or two of 'you know what'. He finished reading the details written on the paper, placed it down on his desk and picked up his pen to sign it. His head shot up when he heard a familiar yell coming from the hallway.
"It wasn't my fault! They started it!"
"Shut up, stupid cow. Walk."
The second voice made the Don shiver, just a bit, knowing who the voice belongs to.
The door was then kicked. KICKED. open, and flew halfway across the room. The brunet stared at the tall raven wearing a fedora, dumbfounded.
Noticing the look on the brunet's face, the man spoke. "Hey, Dame-Tsuna. I see you're looking as pathetic as ever. Surprised to see me?"
Tsuna's mouth gave a slight twitched at the use of his former nickname. It's been a while since he saw his ex-tutor. "Yeah, quite an entrance you made there. My door has a knob, you know. Not to mention it's not locked either.
The man smirked and walked towards the broken door lying on the ground. "Just suggesting you get a new one. By 'new', I meant a double door. That small of an entrance space is too tiny and unfitting for a room like this."
A smile was formed on the brunet's face. "You think so? Alright then, I'll take your suggestion." Tsuna placed his pen down and stood up, still facing the man. "What brings you here, Reborn?" Noticing the person that still waiting in front of the room, out in the hallway, his eyes peered at the black-haired teen with a cow-printed shirt on.
Reborn's expression dropped. He raised his arm to signal for the teen behind to come. "Get over here, brat."
The teen's expression looked like he needed a bathroom, NOW. He slowly walked forward while looking down and stopped when he was standing next to Reborn.
"Tell your boss what you did."
Tsuna had his full attention on the teen. After a few seconds of staring, there was silence. The teen was too afraid to speak, not wishing to get in trouble. The brunet changed his expression to a warm smile. He placed his hands on his desk and leaned forward, still standing, with his head tilted to the teen's direction. "Lambo." The teen looked up at his boss. "I'm not going to get mad. Tell me what happened."
Lambo seemed to loosen up at that. Thank heavens his boss is extremely considerate. "Well, at school, during lunch, this guy bumped into me and made me pour my milk all over my uniform." There was a nod. "He didn't say sorry so I gave him an Electrico Cornata." Sweatdrop. "But then I missed." A sigh of relief. "And struck this other guy near him." Twitch. "And he lost consciousness, making his angry friends charge at me. So I panicked and threw grenades at them and ran." Speechless.
Reborn tilted his fedora to cover his eyes. "And so, he's expelled. I caught him at the park when it was still school hours and forced the story out of him." Lambo shivered at the memory, swearing that he would've needed a funeral to be held for him if he didn't spit everything out. "After-all, he DID manage to almost kill those students. Not to mention the damage of school property."
Tsuna sighed once again and sat down in his seat. "I'm guessing that I'm going to have to pay for repairs and the hospital bills?"
"Obviously. And after that.."
".. What?" the Don sat up straight. "There's more to it?"
"Since Lambo's expelled, the news about how dangerous he is has been spread to nearly all schools in Italy. But we still need to get this stupid cow educated."
Tsuna nodded in agreement.
"So we're sending him to Japan to attend Namimori High until he graduates."
There was a pause. Which didn't last long after the brunet processed the reasoning behind the choice. Lambo would be able to stay with Nana and be taken care of. Tsuna let out a small smile and reached for his phone. "Great, I'll inform mom about it. I'm sure she'll be happy to see him again."
"And," Reborn continued. Tsuna's smile loosened and was starting to get a bit nervous. It's Reborn here we're dealing with. After a good news, the bad news will come. "You'll be going with him. As his brother." Say what? "And tutor." Come again? "Since you're old enough to get a job now, I already signed you up for a teacher role at his school." Excuse me? "Since Vongola is now in good terms with all the families that can be considered a threat, it'll be safe both here and in Japan. The weaker families wouldn't dare to lay a finger on us. Oh, you won't be taking any cash from Vongola to Japan with you by the way." Pardon? "Give a call to maman to tell her you're coming. Vongola's private jet's outside waiting. Ciao." Reborn finished and walked out into the hallway, smirking.
"..." Tsuna is still silent from what just happened. He finally snapped out and started to recall everything Reborn said. 'Okay, so. I'll be Lambo's older brother... But we look nothing alike. Besides, Lambo's Itali- Oh wait. Adoption. There we go. He's adopted. As for tutor, I guess that just means I'll help him with the school materials. Nothing to worry about, really. Teacher at Namimori.. Wow, never in my life have I even thought of that. But I should be able to know all the materials well enough to teach. Since I won't be taking any cash with me, I kind of need that job too.'
Lambo stared at his boss with a pitiful expression. 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry,' he repeated in his head.
The brunet turned to look at his "brother" to find that 'I'm really sorry' look. He chuckled. "Don't worry about it, Lambo. I got this. And I should be thanking you, I can say goodbye to the paperwork for several years." But of course, in his mind, he knows that Reborn's not letting him go that easy. The teen raised an eyebrow at how well his boss is taking this.
Then suddenly, a voice of an certain man with a fedora was heard once again. Reborn reappeared, still wearing that same smirk. "Huh. Sorry to disappoint you, actually, I'm not, but the paperwork will be mailed to the Sawada residence." There we go, of course our poor Don isn't getting off the hook that easy. "Then again, I'll be torturing you too much. Your guardians here in Italy would each be taking care of a good 10% portion of the total everyday. Bianchi and Fuuta are willing to help as well, 10% each. The remaining would be mailed to you. Happy early birthday. Ciao."
'..10% each huh. So we have Hayato, Takeshi, Ryohei, Kyouya, Mukuro, Chrome, Bianchi, and Fuuta. Kyouya would probably be (unwillingly) going with this plan, since that means I owe him a nearly-4-years-worth of favors. With Mukuro.. Chrome should be able to convince him. The rest wouldn't be a problem. So that means.. I get only the 20% mailed to me.. ' The brunet is now smiling like a 5-year-old having his birthday party celebrated in a country-sized bouncy house.
"Uhh. Vongola, shouldn't you give maman a call?"
Tsuna snapped out of his thoughts and coughed into his fist. 'Goodness, Tsuna, control your expressions. You're an adult now,' he silently tectured himself. "Ah, right. Thanks for reminding." He dialed his mother's speed dial. (Yes, boss or not, he still misses his mom sometimes.) While he waited, he peered at Lambo again. "We're siblings now. Just call and treat me like how you used to." He gave a grin.
The teen laughed in reply, he forgot that they're supposed to be brother. "Riiight." Lambo recalled in his memory of how he used to act around his boss. "Oi Tsuna. Call maman on the way out. I wanna see her already!" Without waiting for a reply, the smiling "cow" ran out the door. Tsuna chuckled at the performance. Even though this version of Lambo was awfully annoying, but it sure brings back the memories.
"Hello? Mo-"
"Tsu-kun! Is it true you and Lambo-kun are coming back?! Reborn-kun told me everything! He said you'll arrive soon, what would you like to eat?!" Nana screamed happily.
'Damn you, Reborn. I wanted to surprised her.' "Oh, it's okay mom. Anything is fine. Don't over do it. I'll head to my-" Tsuna paused. "airport now." He can't have her know that he came to Italy to inherit the strongest mafia family (Under Reborn's order) and is now filthy rich, as well as influential. And there we have Reborn, giving Nana a story of "Tsuna's life" a few years ago. Saying that after he left Japan to go to college, he dropped out in the first month 'Thanks, Reborn.' and now works in a popular restaurant in called Vongola. As a janitor. 'Thanks again, Reborn' But is getting paid really well.
"What time are you arriving?! I'll pick you two up!"
"Mom, you don't have to, besides, I uhh.." Excuse, Tsuna needs one, any one is fine. "Sometimes the wind pushes the plane back and slows it down by a few hours, so I don't know when exactly would we be there and I don't want to have you waiting." Facepalm. 'What am I saying?'
"Oh. Okay then! I'll be home waiting for you two. Stay safe! Bye!~"
"Bye, mom." Phew. He smiled as he noticed that his mother hasn't changed at all. Tsuna placed his phone in his pocket and walked out of his room. There was no need to lock any doors. 'Thanks a lot, Reborn.' Though it wasn't that big of a deal, Hayato would know to get it replaced. Just for it to be kicked again by Reborn the next time he visits. 'Sorry, Reborn. Double doors just doesn't feel right for me.' he apologized in his mind.
After bidding the workers good-bye, he asked a few to give his thanks to his guardians, Bianchi, and Fuuta for helping him with his paperwork. Tsuna walked out of the headquarters to spot a huge private jet waiting for him. Since Lambo is nowhere in sight, he must've gone in already. He started walking down the stairs and suddenly stopped. The workers immediately rush to their boss' side to ask if anything's wrong.
'Why do I feel like.. I'm missing something. A lot.. of something too..' Then it came to him. "Ugh.. luggages.. I didn't pack up at all.." he sighed. How could he forget something like that? Oh, right, his former nightmare just came up to him not a while ago telling him that he's leaving for Japan. The workers around him loosened up and walked back to their spots, expect for the head butler.
"Tenth, Reborn-san had told us to buy you and the Lightning Guardian some new clothing and are all placed inside the jet. He said that would be all you'll be needing." the butler stated, politely. What he said was true. The only needed thing that Nana would be lacking at her place was fitting clothing for the two. Tsuna relaxed at the statement. He smiled at the butler and thanked him, as well as the other workers, who nodded with a smile in reply.
He continued walking down the stairs and entered the jet. Lambo was asleep in a cushioned seat, snoring loudly. The pilot greeted his boss, who greet back, and waited for him to sit so they can take off. Tsuna took the seat next to Lambo and signaled the pilot that he's ready.
Tsuna took out his phone to check the time, on the way of shutting it. It's 12:16, meaning it's 7:16 P.M. in Japan. He would ask his pilot how long the flight would take, but it wouldn't be wise to do that since they're off ground. 15 hours maybe? Then they should be there at around noon. Probably. After his phone turned off, he placed it back into his pocket and closed his eyes for a .. long.. long nap.
Hello dere :D I'm sorry if you guys aren't too fond with the guardians not really appearing D; They WILL come up eventually though. But not all at once. I haven't thought of any pairings yet honestly. I'm not too much of a yaoi fan so I'm not adding any guyxguy pairings (IM SORRY, IM SORRY, IM SORRY. But i don't hate it. Go ghey rights!) but if you guys would like some fluffs between some people, please tell me in the review : D This is my first time doing this so I'm still kind of inexperienced in how things work. I spent so long trying to figure how to post (Omg. Im so stupid D;). So please give me some advices. :D
